Agility humanoid robot implements physical safety constraints to prevent collisions with human coworkers

Agility's new humanoid robot autonomously stops and squats to avoid collisions with human coworkers during collaborative warehouse and manufacturing tasks, according to Ars Technica. The robot's physical safety boundary constraints are designed around concrete enterprise robotics deployment requirements rather than theoretical safety considerations.
